Style

This is a blend of black loose leaf teas to create a Lapsang Souchong that is both deep and smoky but silky and light.

It lies between the rich texture and heady aroma of our Tarry Lapsang and the elegant subtleties of our Rare Lapsang Souchong.

It can be enjoyed with or without milk.

Tasting Notes

Deep notes of peat like a fine malt whisky with a rich smoky aroma. It can be enjoyed with or without milk.

Cost Per Cup

40p per cup based on 2.5g of tea per 150ml of water and 2 infusions.

Origin

Wuyi mountains, Fujian province, China

View full details

The smoky scent comes from the traditional method of smoking the tea over pine wood in the Wuyi Mountains of Fujian China. This is not a flavouring or an oil that you might find in industrial bags, but a real smoked tea beautifully crafted.

Serving Suggestions

We particularly enjoy this tea with ginger cake, biscuits, or in fact anything gingery.

You may want to experiment by adding a small pinch of our Himalayan Ginger to your pot.
